Inferring stress placement variability from a poetic corpus
Journal of Slavic Linguistics. 2021. Vol. 29. No. FASL Extra Issue. P. 1–15.
Piperski A., Kukhto A.
In this paper, we analyse stress placement variation in the Poetic subcorpus of the Russian National Corpus. We devise a measure of the extent of variation observed in the data and show that the rate of stress variation in poetry written in Modern Russian has been declining since the middle of the 19th century. We suggest that variation observed in poetry reflects variation in the language overall, although this link requires much further investigation. Nevertheless, we maintain that poetry is a useful resource in the investigation of stress placement, especially when other resources are not available.

in the 12th) and the 16th — 17th centuries.
The fi rst period is tied to the general adoption of Christian names, where

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

Like other narratives in the Book of Genesis, the story of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:1–16) has been studied and commented upon for more than two millennia. However, recent scholarship has introduced significant revisions to traditional interpretations. Over the past five years, several monumental commentaries on Genesis 1–11 have been published, offering new—and sometimes mutually ...

The paper is devoted to the variable number marking in Shughni
nouns and reports the results of corpus and experimental studies. In some languages,
including Shughni, the marking of plural nouns is not compulsory. Many
factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,
or syntactic position may determine the presence or absence of number marking.
The corpus study investigates ...

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Новая книга Д. Файзова пронизана голосами других поэтов. Речь не о расхожей постмодернистской центонности. Это микроинтертекстуальность на уровне конкретных слов и приемов, коллаж осколков чужих голосов, однако таких осколков, которые сохраняют способность отсылать к целому и к тому же вписаны — вклеены на манер аппликации — в узнаваемую интонацию самого поэта.

This study explores a fragment of the accentual system of the Pskov dialect, with data obtained from both a corpus and fieldwork. The focus is on a-stem nouns (1st declension), with the accent types and stress patterns described. The accent types of nouns are presented in tables, while the stress patterns are given in a dictionary format, allowing for a combined approach to describing the dialect’s accentual system. Special attention is paid to stress placement in the accusativus singularis form of a number of words, which in this case ...

This variability appears across both conjugation types and is found in verbs with ...

Однако в других версиях этой песни, гораздо более многочисленных, Дуня имеет устойчивый эпитет вдовина, который в последующем на основе фонетического созвучия трансформировался в фамилию Фомина, а Дуня Фомина начала ...
